That's actually exactly what I'm about to tell you. It doesn't say anywhere that Sparda actually made them and it sure doesn't say anywhere he put any power into them. It has only been said that he owned them. There is a reason no one ever draws any of Sparda's energy from anywhere other than Force Edge/Sparda.
